Once, you were my inspiration

I should've seen it coming
When the roses died,
Should have seen
The end of summer in your eyes.
It's hard, letting you go
It's hard, so hard it's tearing out my heart.

But nothing's fair in love and hate,
you lay it all down and walk away
Before it's too late.
Though the times have changed
These days are fast, love don't last,
In this graceless age

And I can't fight the feelings
Buried in my brains
I ain't going to call you, or
Hear you say my name
And if you see me on the street,
Don't wave just walk away.

If that's what it takes,
that's what I'll do, tonight's
The night, I'm going to prove it to you.
Once you were my inspiration,
But the river's run dry
What was once holy water
Tastes like bitter wine.
